Were on the cusp of a warmer time of year, and a few rare, temperate days have begun to make an appearance. Weve missed them so much through the rainy day season outside of our apartments in Puyallup WA. If you have begun to crave some summery excursions, then you should check the weather forecast for the next sun-kissed day! When it heats up, its a great time to head over to your local Wild Waves theme park for some summer-style fun! When you plan your visit to WildWaves, you should try to take full advantage of all that that the park has to offer. Spend some time at Pirates Cove, where you will find Captain Hooks Lagoon, an array of water slides, cool and warm pools, and the Raging River ride! This area also offers several options for edible replenishment, as well as a beer garden. If youve chosen to visit on a particularly sunny day, then you can rent a cabana to retreat into shade whenever you like. Another section of this park is Waterslide Alley, where you will definitely not want to forget your swimming attire. Its a literal gamut of adult waterslides where you must be at least 42 to partake. Take a trip down Zooma Falls, the Riptide, or all of the Konga Slides. For a more relaxing jaunt, hop into the Konga Lazy River and just float for a while. When your energy begins to fail you, but you arent ready to head home, take advantage of Pizza Pier or the Snack Shack. Then hop back into the water-loving party! If youve had enough of the water attractions, then take a meandering walk through Celebration Square. Here you will find street games, fish feeding, the Soaring Eagle 100 zip line, and a literal smorgasbord of rides and entertainment. You can even enjoy the experience of winter tubing on the dry tube track! There is a live Pirate Diving Show where you can view showman divers on an 80 high-dive! Its a comedy show, and caters not just to entertaining the kiddies. If youve brought some littlies with you, then take them to the Sea lion show to meet Stella, Kitty, and Rose! These friendly and adorable sea lions will teach you all about how to recycle and dispose of garbage properly, while putting on a show with serious splash power. We all know that waste management, if handled improperly, can cause all manner of havoc for marine wildlife. Who wants to be a part of that?! Once youve all learned how to take care, haul the little ones over to Kiddie Land for some exhausting, nap-inducing rides. Im sure youll be ready to lie down and catch some Zs in no time! Before you head back to your Parkland WA apartments, dont miss stopping in to the Old West, and making a run in the bumper cars, or the Pirate Ship. Make sure to strap on your shoes, because most of these rides require them. Make your final pit stop into Northwest Territory for some final ride adventures, and then stumble your shaky legs on home. You can bet itll be a nap well deserved by then.

I come from a fairly small town, and because of this I hold small town festivities in high esteem. If you are the kind of person who smells cotton candy and is suddenly overwhelmed by nostalgia, then youll appreciate this next tip. I should also mention that this festival doesnt revolve around anything that will rot your teeth out of your head. In the interest of dentists everywhere, Im here to draw your attention to the towns festivities that surround the annual Daffodil Festival. They are held each spring near your apartments in Puyallup, WA. Thus far, your impression might only be one of hiding inside your place, while little girls run around in poufy yellow dresses. I dont blame you, but make sure to pop your head out of the sand for the parade! Its a worthwhile sight to see. This year is the 81st year since the birth of the festival, when Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Orton hosted the first annual formal garden party for their guests to view and enjoy their flowers in bloom. The Festival was established in 1926 as a proactive step to revive the agricultural industry in the area, just after the hops industry begun to decay. It has been an annual local event every year since. The only exceptions were the years during World War II (1943-45). The parade came into existence in 1934, when a procession of automobiles decorated with daffodils began its trek through town. Now the parade is comprised of four routes through Pierce County. It traverses through Tacoma, Puyallup, Orting, and Sumner. This years parade in Puyallup is set for April 5, and will begin at 12:45 in the historic district. The parade has grown from its modest origins into a huge event, where over 150 entries participate! Head on down to the parade this year, and enjoy some old-school small town entertainment. Watch your local marching bands, car clubs, businesses, and veterans groups promenade down the street chucking candy! Itll be just like when you were a kid, only you can probably get away with taking more tootsie rolls than your Mother allowed. Dont miss the Marine parade, either, because who doesnt want to see a slew of yachts decked out with daffodils floating down the waterfront?! Im sure theyll be chucking candy as well, and so I must retract my previous statement that this event wont rot your teeth. I leave self-control entirely up to you! The Daffodil Marine Parade is set for Sunday, April 13 and begins at the Tacoma Yacht Club near Point Defiance. It continues along a route through Foss Thea Waterway and on toward downtown Tacoma. When youve finished watching and partaking in the Daffodil parades, you can head over to the local Farmers Market to pick out your own lovely bunch of blooms. Pierce County is famous for its Spring Daffodils and Tulips. The market is located in Pioneer Park and in the Pioneer Pavilion, and admission is free. Local vendors offer hanging baskets, flowers, and bulbs. It begins April 12 October 11 on Saturdays from 9am to 2pm. Take advantage of that, and spruce things up with some spring blooms in your Parkland Washington apartments!

You also have Perkys just around the bend, where you can get a decent cup and some sustenance to keep you going. Both of these choices come highly recommended for friendliness and dependability. Obviously, neither Starbucks nor Perkys is a bad choice for a pretty yummy blended coffee beverage, however you can do them one better!

Have you ever bought a piece of furniture only to find out that it wouldnt fit through the doorway of you Parkland, WA, apartment? Maybe you got home with a piece of artwork only to realize that theres something off about the way it is hung but you cant figure out what? There are a number of rules and tricks designers use to keep things in proportion and knowing a few of them can stop you from making a potentially expensive mistake. Hanging things on the wall is often something that is done without much though. You might have a friend help to make sure it is level and centered on the wall but that is usually where people leave off. You can greatly improve the presentation of hanging wall art by centering it at eye level which is between 56-60. Similarly, with pieces made up of two or more sections, use the center point between them as your reference point. You would be amazed at how much more put together a room looks when these simple things are taken into consideration. You can make your windows, and the entire room by extension, feel larger by playing around with measurements a bit. When hanging drapes, mount the rods 4-6 above the window frame. Curtains and drapes should be cut long enough that they slightly graze the floor. Some designers recommend letting curtains puddle, or hang an extra 2-3 so they sort of pile up at the bottom. I advise against puddling because the drapes get dirty more quickly and if youve ever had to pay to have drapes cleaned you know exactly why I try to avoid it (its super expensive). You can also make the windows look larger by overlapping the outer edges of the window by several inches. This works especially well when combined with a higher-than-necessary curtain rod height to give the appearance of massive windows. Rugs can be insanely expensive which makes measuring for them even more important than other pieces of furniture. When using a rug to cover the floor try to leave about 12 of bare floor between the rug and the wall. This frames the rug and ensures that everything looks like it fits together. Smaller rooms can get away with less space but the general rule is the same; leave a good bit of space to highlight the difference between the rug and the floor. When putting a rug beneath a table try to get one that extends at least 2 from the edge of the table on all sides. This ensures that a chairs legs can all be on the rug when someone is sitting in it. Keep these tips in mind the next time you set out to redecorate your home and you will be one step ahead. So go out and measure that rug you have had your eye on. Sure, its beautiful but it doesnt matter how well the colors work together if its too big to fit in your South Hill, WA, apartment. Keep this in mind because these tips could potentially help prevent you from making what a very costly mistake.
